Today, Dynabook announces new Tecra A-Series laptops with Intel Core Ultra processors that include neural processing units for improved local machine learning model processing. The new NPU helps with video conferencing camera effects and can also be used with NPU compatible local AI model generative software that you might be able to install yourself. These new Dynabooks also have a nice dark metallic blue chassis that makes it stand out from the boring silver, grey, and black computers out there.
